  • the Slides are made of a material having a very low coefficient of friction. They allow in particular the track 12 to rotate around the housing 14 and reduce friction between the inner face of the track 12 and the outside of the housing 14. They also serve as guides to keep the track 12 in the axis of the Apparatus 10.
  • the slides extend a few centimeters beyond the front and rear ends of the upper and lower walls 14a and 14b to support the track 12 over almost the entire length of the apparatus 10.

  • An electric clutch 84 mounted on the generator shaft 80 enables remote activation and deactivation of the mechanical link between the generator and the generator. 32.
  • the transmission 60 of the apparatus 10 is set to neutral.
  • the intake of fresh air inside the internal chamber 30 of the housing 14 is made by a series of openings 90 provided on at least one side of the housing 14, immediately below the upper wall 14a.
  • the openings 90 have a relatively small diameter to allow a reduction in the ingestion of snow and debris, such as twigs or other wood.
  • the air passing through the openings 90 enters an inlet box 92 which collects air from all openings 90 on each side of the housing 14.
  • the box intake 92 is heated from below by the heat released by the gasoline engine 32 and circulating in the inner chamber 30. This heat keeps the internal chamber 30 well above the freezing point (0 ° C) if the outside temperature is very cold, such as under -20 ° C.
  • any particles of snow that enter the intake box 92 can melt and drip outward, even in cold weather.
  • the top of the outlet pipe 94 may be raised several millimeters from the bottom of the inlet box 92 to prevent the flow of water directly to the inner chamber 30.
  • the figure 6 is a top view of the apparatus 10 shown in FIG. figure 3 .
  • the air intake box 92 The air exiting the intake box 92 is then channeled into a flexible conduit 95 (schematically illustrated in FIG. figure 4 ) leading to the inlet 33 of the scroll of the cooling fan integrated in the gasoline engine 32.
  • the fan in the engine 32 thus generates the suction force required to suck the air through the openings 90.
  • the cooling air passes around the cylinder or cylinders of the gasoline engine 32 and then ends within the internal chamber 30.
  • the air outlet of the interior of the apparatus 10 is effected in two ways.
  • the combustion of gasoline in the engine 32 generates exhaust gases.
  • the air used for this combustion is admitted inside the engine 32 from inside the inner chamber 30 or may also come directly from the intake box 92 in the case of certain engines.
  • the exhaust gas at the outlet of the cylinder (s) of the engine 32 is then directed towards the rear of the apparatus 10 via an exhaust pipe 96, which is shown at figure 6 .
  • the outlet of the exhaust pipe 96 is located in the space 98 where the rear transverse axis 52 and the two rear rollers 50 are located.
  • This space 98 is partially obstructed by the presence of the track 12 when the apparatus 10 is assembled.
  • This configuration makes it possible in particular to reduce the noise and to avoid any possible contact of the skin or clothing of the operator 22 with the hot outlet of the exhaust pipe 96.
  • Other configurations are also possible.
  • Air is also vented from the interior of the inner chamber 30 through an air outlet which is part of the ventilation circuit.
  • the air passing through the outlet passes firstly through the cooling circuit of the generator 80 and then flows through a flexible conduit 104 (shown schematically in FIG. figure 4 ) to the inlet of an air outlet box 100.
  • the outlet box 100 has a construction similar to that of the intake box 92. The air is then discharged through openings 102 placed on the least one side of the housing 14.
  • the fan integrated in the generator 80 contributes to the displacement of the air in order to increase the flow of air for its cooling.
  • Additional fans placed in series on the flexible conduits connected to the air inlet and outlet can further increase the air flow if the temperature in the inner chamber becomes too high. These fans can be turned on automatically by a thermostat with a temperature sensor or other device.
  • the apparatus 10 is configured such that a positive pressure is created in the inner chamber 30. This is accomplished by providing a total air intake area larger than the total exit area. In the example, the number of openings 90 is greater than the number of openings 102.
  • the positive pressure makes it possible in particular to obtain a better seal of the casing 14.
  • the underside of the housing 14 is domed at its center. This elevation is about 3 cm at the front and rear of the track 12 in the apparatus 10 shown as an example. This central portion corresponds to about one-third of the length of the apparatus 10. The elevation facilitates in particular the movement of yaw during turns as well as the manual pivoting of the apparatus 10 on hard and rough surfaces, such as for example asphalt and concrete.
  • the front of the bottom wall 14b defines an angle relative to the horizontal. The front transverse axis 42 is thus higher than the rear transverse axis 52. This also facilitates the passage over obstacles.
  • the figure 7 is a view similar to the figure 1 but in which the operator 22 is standing in a sled 200 coupled to the apparatus 10.
  • the hitch 202 of the sled 200 is connected to a support 210 having the shape, in the example shown, of a straight transverse rod or still slightly bent backwards in its center.
  • the transverse rod 210 is supported by two corresponding plates 212 projecting upwardly from the housing 14.
  • the hitch 202 comprises two sled retaining arms 200, which are attached to a plate 204 which is pivotable about a vertical axis at its end.
  • the fastening element 206 can slide from left to right along the transverse rod 210 by means of pulleys placed on each side of the fastening element 206. In a bend, the fastening element 206 can then move towards one of the ends of the transverse rod 210, which facilitates the handling of the apparatus 10 and reduces the effort required on the part of the operator 22.
  • FIGS. 8 to 13 are similar views to Figures 1 to 6 but show a second example of apparatus 300 in which an electric motor is used.
  • This apparatus 300 is otherwise similar to the apparatus 10 of the preceding example.
  • the apparatus 300 comprises in particular a track 302, a sealed case 304 and a handlebar 306, which is held by an operator 308.
  • the apparatus 300 can also be used with the sled 200 of the figure 7 .
  • the track 302 of the apparatus 300 is rotated with the aid of an electric motor 310 ( figure 10 ).
  • This motor 310 is supplied with electricity by one or more batteries 312, also placed in the internal chamber 314 of the housing 304.
  • the electric motor 310 can be of AC or DC type, with or without permanent magnets.
  • a group of four deep cycle lead batteries 312 is shown in the illustrated example. The number and type of batteries 312 may differ as required.
  • the batteries 312 are connected to an electrical controller actuated by the operator 308 from the handles of the handlebar 306. The various electrical connections are not illustrated in the figures to simplify the illustrations.
  • the electric motor 310 emits heat.
  • This heat represents about 10% of the electrical energy drawn from the batteries 312.
  • the heat thus dissipated is used in the internal chamber 314 of the apparatus 300 to keep the batteries 312 warm when the outside temperature is very cold.
  • This heat makes it possible to maintain an optimal temperature of the batteries despite the very cold weather.
  • the optimum temperature may be for example of the order of 20 to 25 ° C. Other temperatures are also possible.
  • the recovery of this heat is beneficial because most batteries lose their efficiency in cold weather. This is particularly the case for lead batteries.
  • lead acid batteries remain an attractive choice because they are readily available and relatively inexpensive. They are more resistant to cold than nickel or lithium batteries, for example.
  • the efficiency of lead batteries decreases almost linearly with temperature, for example from 100% for 25 ° C to 30% for -40 ° C, depending on the exact type of battery. The decrease in efficiency therefore has a direct impact on the autonomy of the device 300. Keeping the heat in the case 304 in cold weather, the batteries 312 can then maintain an efficiency much higher than they would have low temperature.
  • the interior of the housing 304 may also be insulated to help conserve heat.
  • An internal ventilation system is provided in case of overheating, for example when the apparatus 300 operates in mild weather and the electric motor 310 is highly stressed.
  • This internal ventilation system is part of the ventilation system. It can include a thermostat that actuates at least one fan providing an air intake from the outside to dissipate the internal heat.
